04. Disney

The Pixar website may be the target of an impressive design concept but Disney's site creates an almost completely stand alone experience for its mobile screen sizes, limiting the visual complexity of the initial screen view by reducing features.

05. Buffalo

The web design consultancy Buffalo visually simplifies the layout for smaller screen sizes by changing the shapes of its featured images from complex sided shapes to basic squares.
